I'm using Hyperdragon III and I also have OneNote 2007 but I can't manage to sync OneNote with OneNote 2007. I checked the OneNote box in the Active Sync options; I also uninstalled both programs and reinstalled again but to no avail. I can't get them to sync.
Is there another way?
PS. I don't know if this is relevant but I have Outlook 2003, which is synced perfectly with my phone. I don't know if the different versions are the problem or not.
Yes, kind of..
I have 'syncronized' OneNote Mobile successfully with OneNote 2007
However OneNote does not syncronize the whole database, only a section called 'Notes from <Mobile Device Name>, which is created when you set up the 'syncronization'. This was a big disappointment to me as I of course wanted all my notes on the phone for easy lookup on the road...
You need OneNote 2007 on your PC to get the sync to work.
With OneNote2003 you can only Sync PPC Notes into OneNote on your PC.

Thanks guys.
torefor, did you have any problems with the sync process?
Man -- I was excited to see that OneNote mobile came with my Kaiser when it got back from HTC for a motherboard replacement...
... but now I see that OneNote dedktop doesn't come with my 2007 Office Pro suite -- I'd have to but it seperately for $99
Oh well -- maybe I'll try the demo version and see if I think its worth it...

Really? Is there not a ONOTE or OneNote MSI with all the other MSI's for Office?
There is one with the package at my work, you just can't do it as part of the office install.

Man -- I see I was not able to spell when I typed my earlier message
Anyway, it's official -- onenote does not come with the Office Pro suite.
It does come with Enterprise, however, which is probably what you have at work.
Update: yay, it looks like I can get it through Microsoft's Work At Home program, and my work also uses the Enterprise Suite!

Onenote comes only with the base "Home and Student," the "Ultimate," which despite it's name does NOT have all Office features, and the "Enterprise" edition.

I'm amazed MS has had so much trouble selling this, as I think it's the best software MS has ever put out. Three months ago I was so fed up with MS that I decided to abandon them entirely and move to linux....well, there is NO good replacement for onenote and so I (very begrudgingly) returned. And yes, I did try running an XP VM to run onenote: this is a most unsatisfactory solution. Congrats MS, you lock-in worked in this case. (bastards)
I used onenote on my cell, laptop, desktop and work desktop, and it all syncs fine. Granted I have teh Enterprise edition so that might be the reasons everything worked out the box for me. It is true you need Onenote on the desktop to take advantage of it. To one of the earlier comments about where onenote on the desktop stores the imported notes, you can change that in under tools i believe.
My notes go to the right notebook, but from there i have to manually sort them out to the correct section.
look up some GTD with Onenote articles and it will explain how to set everything... The settings for the phone notes are the same as the settings for sidenotes...
i hope that all made sense...
btw just a little side note... I have a tablet PC so Onenote rocks with a digitizer pen, and being able to search my hand writing etc... So if you own a tablet PC, Onenote is a MUST HAVE APP
if you dont have a tablet PC, i really dont see a need for Onenote other than how it organizes pages etc...
btw OneNote & Groove work awesome together (aslong as your on a 32bit OS since groove doesnt work on 64bit)
Hey
I'am searching for software so I can sync my business appointments at work and that my personal appoitments are not synced is there a software out that can do that because in windows mobile device center I can't choose which it has to sync it just syncs everything.

How can we move forward by continuing what we were used to do with WM6.5 on WP7 & HD7
I have just purchased HD7 and was expecting to move easily from WM6.5 on my previous diamond to WP7.
One of my reasons why I am buing a windows phone device is that all my history of work for more than 10 years was stored on windows mobile... It is true that I find some difficulties when upgrading, but there is always a way to upgrade and take with you your old staff...
Here is a surprise ...
This was a chat that i made on microsoft official Website...

DESCRIPTION:
________________________
-Ok it seems that i will regret buying my new HTC HD7 that operates Windows phone 7.
-I have my own software that i purchased for windows phone 6.5 and i have no idea if I am able to install these softwares on windows phone 7.
-I use these software in my work and the backup softwares that i was used to for getting back all my contacts and SMS's... If anyone have a solution for this please reply and help the windows phone users.
-I beleive I am not the only one suffering from the same problem.
-Is Microsoft asking us to go and buy again the same softwares just for the reason of being windows phone 7?
-Ok, let us think forward, I will buy the new windows phone 7 apps but I want to be sure that these apps can also work on windows phone 6.5 so that i can continue building up by taking my old personal files and continue.
-I don't think it is a good idea to restart from scratch again...!

Cutting straight to the conclusion, Windows Phone isn't a form of Windows Mobile and has no compatibility with it. You can't use your Windows Mobile software on it.
If you want to see the full reasons behing the break away from Windows Mobile for a consumer solution you will want to watch the 15 February 2010 announcement from the Mobile World Congress for what was then called "Windows Phone 7 Series" (by Joe Belfiore and Steve Ballmer). The best way I can summarize it is that Microsoft couldn't provide the user experience they aimed for while retaining backwards compatibility. With the shrinking marketshare of Windows Mobile among consumers it would appear that the lost of past investments was already a shrinking concern (after all as users moved to Android and iPhone they were separating themselves from the past software investments. So no matter what it is bound to happen).
So Microsoft designed a new operating system for consumers and Windows Mobile (now called Windows Embedded Handheld) is still around as an enterprise solution and evolving in it's own direction.

WoW... it was really shocking ... Now microsoft is asking me again to forget about my work in the last years...
I am ordered to push the button and restart or else i will be outdated...
does anyone have a suggestion ?
Now, I will not only think of changing my operating system, I'll think of changing my whole life and go to any other company that would respect people efforts over the years... And i have nothing to sacrifice this time, by anyways I will lose my previous work...
Thanks Microsoft for wasting 10 years of my life... (I started to work on windows mobile since this old i-mate 2020, anyone remember?)
________________________
NOW:
-What do you think? -Any suggestion? -Any work arround? -Should we go back?
Move on, adapt to changes. I think Microsoft did a good thing starting from scratch. I mean.. if there was no Windows Phone 7 you would have either moved to Android, iOS, Blackberry or Symbian(Which is as good as dead by now). Then you would have had to start all over again with everything unless you wanted to use an archaic phone with an even more archaic OS.
As a good rule of thumb, it's always beneficial to do some research on what you are purchasing before you go ahead with the purchase.
As you have found out, Windows Mobile 6.5 is nothing like or even related to Windows Phone 7 (aside from the similarities in the name). Applications from Windows Mobile are not compatible with Windows Phone, and the same is true the other way around.
If you like Windows Mobile 6.5, you should stick with it. You'll be safe in knowing you will always have the latest version of Windows Mobile and won't ever have to upgrade your software again.
If you switch to Windows Phone 7, you switch to a brand new (version 1.0) platform. Kinda like switching from a PC to a Mac. So you'll be buying and building new apps for your new platform and will have to find ways to work with the new platform. You'll find that both Windows Mobile 6.5 and Windows Phone 7 have their positives and negatives, and you just need to figure out what works best for you and stick with it.
You remember moving from 3.11 -> Win 95, Win 98 -> XP, and XP -> Vista... Win CE -> WM5
Now it is WM6.5 -> WP7...
Microsoft always do the same...
Don't you remember some good staff you had on your Win98 that you miss now?
I am an Engineer, I was used to use multiple engineering softwares that creat special file formats. Also some general softwares like GPS Tracking software, Graphic Calculators, and more...
Now Microsoft dicovered that it is out of the competition due to Android OS, and Iphone. So instead of holding its previous clients who where Using there PPC for real business applications and paying lots on cash for doing this, Microsoft decides to go with the easy trend. Some funny games, some animation, BUT WHERE IS THE CORE?
Now Windows Phone 7 looks to me like any simbian device with "MS office" (thanks god, they did not throw it away)
Where is the origen of "Windows =(multi-tasking)"?
does anyone believe that a windows os doesn't have multi-tasking? doesn't have file explorer?
sooo weired ...
I was a fan of Microsoft I always say those competitors are far away from what a PPC was made for...
Now I am shocked, even Microsoft is taking the easy way...

And this is where you misunderstand. Your progress chart is kinda off.
Win 1.x -> Win 2.x -> Win 3.x -> Win 95 -> Win 98 -> Win ME (end)
Win NT 3.x -> WinNT 4 -> Win 2000 (end)
Then the Windows consumer kernel and the Windows NT kernel were combined to create Windows XP.
Win XP -> Win Vista -> Win 7
The above are three separate lines of products but they happen to share the same brand name. Windows ME was the last of its product line. Upgrading from the Windows ME line to XP was a rather turbulent experience as it broke support for many hardware devices and offered little support for older software (though of course, there were always ways to make it work).
As for the Windows Mobile and Windows Phone lines.
... -> WM 6.0 -> WM 6.1 -> WM 6.5
WP7
Windows Mobile 6.5 and below are not part of the Windows Phone 7 line of software. They are two separate software product lines. Though they share similar names, which is a marketing tactic (a failed one I might add), but that's where the similarities end.
A sentiment shared by most people in the industry (and most consumers), Windows Mobile was (is) a dead platform and could not succeed any longer in its current form in this modern market. So its development has ended, and a new product was created called Windows Phone 7. WP7 is built from scratch, and because of that, it does not have all the features that the 10+ year old Windows Mobile product has. Given time, Windows Phone 7 will become an even better mobile platform than it currently is, but until then, if you are not happy with the kinds of things Windows Phone 7 brings to the table, then by all means switch to something else that does, or stick with Windows Mobile.
You bring up points that countless others have brought up before, and your complaints will yield no results, so its rather useless to complain. Not to mention, it is rather unfair to compare a product less than a year old to a product that has more than 10 years of development time. Of course Windows Mobile has got more features. That's just common sense.
What kind of a business tactic involves supporting a 10 year old product that doesn't cut it anymore? In this modern day of smartphones, the game has changed, so Microsoft needed to change with it.
So you are right, PPC is made for a different type of person, and Windows Phone 7 is not PPC, not even close.
You're a little off on your chart as well.
Win2000 is NT5.0. XP is NT5.1. They should be listed on the same line.
Just sayin'.
Thank you all for your reply...
As you mentioned, we should move forward... There was a nice PIM backup software that we used to backup our SMS's and contacts...
Is there any news about a new version to work on WP7 and use the Backup files we created on WM6.5 to be restored on WP7?
or any fix to run PIM backup software (in compatiblity view) (run as WM6.5 app) on WP7...?
We need to go forward and at least keep some backup of our SMS's ... right?
Thank you!

I'm quoting this because this is just about the best explanation I have seen so far. Honestly, this should be at the top of every WP7 related page on this forum. This is very well thought out, and articulated version of what I keep screaming everytime I read/see the same stuff.
"Quit cryin!" Get over it or move to Android (which IMO is Windows MOBILE 7+)
You're not going to cry MS into reverting back to WM6.'whatever'. So you can roll with it or move and roll in another direction.
You can keep backups of your SMS messages by utilizing Microsoft MyPhone (WinMo 6.5), which syncs your texts to your live account.
Unfortunately, no way to get those texts to your WP7. But you can always look at them.

I separated Windows 2000 from XP because it is considered that Windows 2000 was the end of the whole "business-only" Windows platform (at the time 2000 was released, ME was also not far behind, so it was still billed as the separate "consumer" and "business" platforms), even though it was technically the first hybrid kernel Windows platform. It was only when XP was released that it was considered the first of the consumer/business hybrid platform. So therefore I think that warrants it to be part of a separate line on its own since its all been based on XP's whole hybrid mantra since then.
So yes, on either line, technically, it'd be correct. Haha.
The best indicator of whether something is good and valuable is the equipment price. At the beginning of the HD7 was very expensive and no one knew what it is WP7. After several months, it appears that it is better to give the phone to be utilized than to sell it on ebay. Nice phone on which you can do a little.
Office for Windows Phone 8 was the major factor I want to switch from Android to WP8. But there are some rumors and proof also (some screenshots on internet) that say that Microsoft is developing Office 2013 for iOS and Android and will be available for FREE (editing only) on these 2 OS.
It'll have skydrive and everything except editing.
Why Microsoft wants to hamper Windows Phone sales by doing this?
What you think here at Windows Phone 8 forums, how will it affect WP8 sales.
And as a current Android user, should I switch from Android to WP8, now?
If a good office program is the only reason why you want to shift to WP8, have you tried some very good Office Suites for Android.
I suggest to give the following a try :-
1. SoftMaker
2. OfficeSuite Pro 6 by Mobile Systems
Personally I think these (specially Softmaker) are more powerful than the knocked down version of Microsoft Office for WP8
Just a suggestion as I thought this may save you some real hassle of switching platforms.http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Hey guys,
I'm going to be demo'ing a windows 8 Mobile Device's integration with Live and our company apps. I was watching MMS 2013 videos and they showed a Windows 8 Mobile screen on their Windows 8 desktop during their demos.
Any ideas how I can do this? Using a Lumia 920.
Thanks
You can't. Developer devices include additional Drivers and Software to make this possible. Also the Software running on the Desktop for this is not released by Microsoft. There are some hacked ROMs for old WP7 devices but those won't help you with your use case.
